  • On Thursday, May 23, the first graders will “pack up” their desk belongings.  Please be sure to send a cleaned out backpack to carry all their “stuff”.
  • On Friday, May 24, field day activities (coordinated by the 7th/8th grade students and teachers) will begin at approximately 9 a.m. and will be held at our school.  Your child should wear tennis shoes for these activities.
  • School dismisses 3 hours early (12:10 p.m.) on Friday, May 24  for summer vacation!!

Animal Fair

Tomorrow, the first grade will be presenting an Animal Fair with their completed animal projects.  An invitation went home a couple of weeks ago.  Parents/family are invited.  Refreshments will be served.  I hope that all will enjoy viewing the projects.  Please feel free to take your child with you (if you can) and the project.  I am hoping that the fair will be finished well before 2:45 pm to avoid too much traffic confusion for school dismissal time.
